Small batch. William Heavenhill — Heaven Hill's prestige aged expression honoring the Heavenhill family, the original landowners whose property gave the distillery its name. One of the oldest small batch releases in Heaven Hill's regular production program.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eHeaven Hill Distillery takes its name from a transcription error — the land where the original distillery was built was owned by the Heavenhill family, and a clerical mistake separated the family name into two words: \"Heaven Hill.\" The William Heavenhill expression honors William Heavenhill, the family patriarch, connecting the brand's name to its literal founding land.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eAt 17 years, the William Heavenhill Small Batch sits between the Elijah Craig 18 Year and the standard Parker's Heritage releases in Heaven Hill's age-statement hierarchy. Heaven Hill's high-rye mashbill at 17 years produces the deep oak integration, dried fruit complexity, and leather warmth of extended maturation — further along than most commercial releases dare to go. As a small batch, it blends a limited selection of the finest 17-year barrels into a unified expression.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003ch3\u003eTasting Notes\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cul\u003e   \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eAppearance:\u003c\/strong\u003e Deep amber from 17 years of Heaven Hill barrel aging.\u003c\/li\u003e   \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eNose:\u003c\/strong\u003e Caramel, dried fruit, warm oak, and the complexity of the high-rye mashbill at 17-year maturity.\u003c\/li\u003e   \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003ePalate:\u003c\/strong\u003e Rich and layered — deep oak integration, dried fruit, leather, and warm spice in a refined, fully developed expression.\u003c\/li\u003e   \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eFinish:\u003c\/strong\u003e Long and warm — the 17-year character producing a sustained, satisfying close.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e  \u003ch3\u003eSpecs\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cul\u003e   \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eDistillery:\u003c\/strong\u003e Heaven Hill Bernheim Distillery, Louisville, Kentucky\u003c\/li\u003e   \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eStyle:\u003c\/strong\u003e Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey, Small Batch\u003c\/li\u003e   \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eAge:\u003c\/strong\u003e 17 years\u003c\/li\u003e   \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eNamed for:\u003c\/strong\u003e William Heavenhill (founding family patriarch)\u003c\/li\u003e   \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eSize:\u003c\/strong\u003e 750ml\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e  \u003cp\u003eBrowse all \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/woodencork.com\/collections\/bourbon\"\u003ebourbon at Wooden Cork\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003ch3\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cul\u003e   \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eWhy is the distillery called Heaven Hill?\u003c\/strong\u003e The land where the original distillery was built belonged to the Heavenhill family.
